The rules of Halloween:
1. Wear a costume.
2. Hand out treats.
3. Never blow out a jack o' lantern.
4. And ALWAYS check your candy.
While little is known about the character, the most haunting image of Trick 'r Treat is Sam, the Spirit of Halloween who enforces the holiday's ancient traditions. To the untrained eye, Sam looks like a little boy out for a night of gathering candy, but what's hidden under the orange footy-pajamas is anything but sweet. The burlap sack with button eyes and a stitched-on smile shrouds something sinister, and while his half-eaten lollipop may look like a tasty treat, when wielded by little Sam, it becomes a deadly weapon. If Sam appears on your doorstep this Halloween, you better be wearing a costume and you better have a bowl full of treats, or you'll be in for one hell of a trick.
The Sam Vinyl figure is adorable, at least at first glance. Sam comes dressed in his orange footed pajamas, and wears a removable 'smiley' button-eyed burlap sack. The figure is fully articulated, featuring a vinyl body capable of standing or sitting, and has a generous range of motion in the neck and arms. Sam includes his trusty sack and is armed with his deadly lollipop.
Trick 'R Treat is due to hit theaters on October 5, 2007 from Warner Bros./Legendary Pictures. For more on the movie
